Oh, Courtney Stodden. If you’re going to be a reality TV star, you’re going to have to… never mind. You’re doing just fine for reality TV.

The Ocean Shores child bride, who married 51-year-old actor Doug Hutchison earlier this year, is in the news again. This time, it’s for dressing and acting inappropriately at a Santa Clarita Valley pumpkin patch.

This may be a first for Seattle’s geek community: A real live superhero is showing up at a Con to reveal the secrets behind his powers.

In the case of Seattle’s so-called superhero Phoenix Jones, it’s the clothes that make the man.

Jones, revealed to be Seattleite Ben Fodor earlier this month, is known for patrolling the city streets — and for posing for pictures in a black and yellow costume. This weekend, he’ll join a panel at zomBcon to talk about creating an effective alter-ego persona.

Actress Hayden Panettierre says she feels a special connection with Amanda Knox after portraying her in a Lifetime movie earlier this year.

“Having played her and in a way walked a mile in her shoes, I do feel a certain connection with her and I would be lying if I said it wasn’t exciting to see a young girl get a second chance at life so I hope she makes the most of that,” the actress told FOX News this week.

She added: ““It is such a complicated case, there is so much that doesn’t make sense and that doesn’t add up, but she has a second shot at life and that is great.”

A memoir from Seattle’s Duff McKagan sheds a sympathetic light on former bandmate Axl Rose and the early days of Guns N’ Roses.

McKagan, formerly that band’s bassist and currently one of Seattle’s most vocal rock icons, is promoting his book “It’s So Easy and Other Lies.” He’ll answer questions about the project at Seattle University — his alma mater — Friday evening. (More on that from the SU alumni blog.)
